Recipe - Filleted Trout With Macadamia Nuts And Fried

4 tablespoon Butter
Splash of dry white wine
2 Trout filleted
One fourth cup Fish stock, OR half clam
Juice, half water
Salt and fresh pepper
One fourth cup Macadamia nuts, cut or sliced up
3 tablespoon Heavy cream
Oil for deep frying
1/8 teaspoon Tomato sauce
2 tablespoon Capers

A very special way a doing trout fillets, inspired by a dish created by
chef Seppi Renngli at the Four Seasons. In a skillet large enough to hold
the fillets melt about 3 tablespoons butter and, when almost sizzling, add
trout. Saute on one side for about 3minutes, turn, cover for a minute,
and then saute the other side. A total of 67 minutes should do it.
Salt and pepper the fish and remove to a warm place, add nuts for a
moment to the pan to toast, then toss over the trout fillets.
Meanwhile, in a separate small, sturdy pan, heat enough oil so that a
small strainer can be lowered into it.
Let capers drain in the strainer.
Returning to the trout pan, splash in tablespoon or two of wine, then add
stock and cream and boil down rapidly, stirring in just a taste of the
tomato paste and a little more butter. When reduced and slightly thickened,
spoon this little bit of pan sauce over the fillets.
Now quickly lower the capers into the almost smoking oil. Let them
sputter and sizzle a few seconds, then remove the strainer and shake free
of oil. Distribute fried capers in neat piles at either end of the fillets
and serve immediately.
